gobbiebag XI/XII/XIII/XIV/XV/XVI

This is a completely silly idea. You get full storage space with three mannequins, and the rest can be devoted to equipment. That's a grand total of 397 slots, not counting your gobbiebag. If you're so gung ho about being able to perfectly gear for any of the 20 jobs in the game, 397 slots really should be enough. If it's not, then I can only say that you're insane. Who would level all 20 jobs, anyway? Just having all the best gear in the game doesn't mean anything if you don't have the practice using the job to back it up.

In short, be happy with what you have, and stop complaining that you have no space. If you don't have space for anything by now, it means you're a hoarder.

I am a hoarder in games. Frankly, I have Gobbiebag, Safe, Storage, Locker, Satchel, and Sack. I use my Storage to house 80 pieces of event/quest gear that I keep for the memory of the fun I had getting them. I use my Satchel for my immediate gear swaps between my favorite four/five job changes. I use my Sack for housing my quest items for countless quests that I am simultaneously in the middle of (also a decent collection for fishing or teleport/warping). My locker keeps my items for jobs I haven't played in a while, My safe keeps the gear that I use on my jobs that can't wear the higher level stuff yet. This is how my inventory is filled to capacity.

I have mules, but don't like to use them for storage. I formerly used them for convenience of selling/buying things from Jeuno and a second race for a perspective change from my main character.

Also, to anyone doing it, I don't know and don't really care where using toon to describe characters began (personally guessing it comes from use in "Who Framed Roger Rabbit?") however, I find the word oddly irritating, far more so than mob. I understand mob, it was an acronym from back in the heyday of MUDs and MUCKs, which meant Mobile Object (in this case a wandering NPC). Using a term like mob should be used from the point of view of a coder. I find it disheartening to see people in the middle of a world use terms like mob, toon (which i've never seen used in game), and npc. Call it by type, species, gender, or race. Heck, call it the big ugly thing by the tree.

Sorry about the above paragraph, but the word toon really irks me for some reason and triggered it finally.

This topic was a stupid topic.

This topic was a valid complaint. There is a ton of gear to get to optimize jobs and it doesn't help that people like playing several jobs.

It isn't a vlaid complaint. Cause in every game (and I heard in real life too) you have to deal with limited inventory and storage. If it's full you have to decide to either drop something or don't get it.

It's nice to know SE is working on something that may or may be not be implemented but in the end - deal with what you got!

I would agree with you if you weren't allowed to play every job on one character. But you can and the fact that development is constantly adding more storage methods to the game means they are taking the complaint seriously. It just sucks that we can't have a 240 inventory and instead have to have a 80 space inventory 80 space mog satchel and 80 space mog safe.

I put it simple - freedom comes with a price.
In FFXI you have the freedome to play every job with one character, so you don't have to create multiple characters that have to play all missions/quests you allready played.
The price - that's your (limited) inventory.
You can't have all!

No - the cake is a lie!

[Catsby]

It's likely the result of poor foresight on upper management's part. Did they see FFXI lasting as long as it currently has? I believe they admitted no. Should have they? not necessarily since back in 2000-2002 MMOs and MUDs were still relatively new. But that doesn't mean you should place hard limitations on your game when the fundamental rule of its kind is constant iteration and expansion.

I lol'd, hard

yawn at that

[Ihnako]

Every MMO has it's hard limits depending on what platform they are designed.
Try to play WoW with the latest addons/expansions on a computer that was avarage the time the game launched - impossible!
Try to play FFXI on a compute the game was lauched - still runs fine.

What you all oversee is that the game is limited by the platform it was designed for - a console.

And with this the thread should be closed as I get the impression that those demanding people become more and more stupid.

WE WANT CAKE TOO SE JUST A SMALL SLICE WOULD BE FINE

The real deal is why not make the 3 bags we have all work for macros instead of just 1 do we lock the others with to much duct tape after we move stuff :X?
